Chinese General Summoning System

Chapter 617 Betrayal

In the study, the counselor Tang Yan hesitated and said to Zhang Mingqi: “Master, in fact, we still have another way out, which is to evacuate to Hangzhou and join forces with the broken army in Hangzhou to resist Lu’s army!”

Zhang Mingqi shook his head and said: “For this, the general governor has also considered this, but in that case, our Southeast Xiang Army will definitely be annexed by the smashing army. The general governor would rather go to the Lu people than give it to Liu Ji. As a subordinate, and this time, the Sundering Army may not be able to stop the Lu State Army, losing the advantage of the topography of Zhejiang and Fuzhou. In addition, the Sundering Army is still in the war with the Dawan State in the Western Regions, and the Sundering Army wants to defeat Lu. The national army will be a very difficult thing.”

The counselor Tang Yan smiled bitterly. In fact, Tang Yan still quite understands why Zhang Mingqi is unwilling to join the Po Lu Army. After all, Zhang Mingqi and Liu Ji had the same status before, and both were the chief governors of the Jin Kingdom. ‘S face was a little bit awkward.

When he was about to leave the State Shepherd House in Jianyang City, Fan Dongying stopped, lowered his voice and said to Yuan Tianba: “Are all the guards around you reliable?”

Yuan Tianba hesitated for a while and said in a low voice: “Although the guards around me were all brought from Jiao Country, I’m not sure if anyone will be bought by Tang Yan’s red fox!”

Fan Dongying immediately said: “I am equally worried about the guards around me. Taking advantage of the guards around us being left outside of the prefecture, let’s make a long story short. Seeing Zhang Mingqi’s meaning, he is ready to surrender to Lu Guo. , And I, Fan Dongying, will never succumb to Lu Guo!”

Yuan Tianba said in a deep voice, “My wife and unborn children died at the hands of the people of Lu, and it is even more unlikely that I, Yuan Tianba, surrendered to the people of Lu! If you hadn’t stopped me just now, I would have to do well. Ask Zhang Mingqi how he promised me back then!”

Fan Dongying shook his head and said: “At this moment and then, now the Southeast Xiang Army has been defeated and defeated again and again, and Zhang Mingqi would rather surrender to the Lu people than seek the support of the Squadron. I am going to take the troops out of Jianyang City and go to Hangzhou. Refuge in the Sundering Army.”

Yuan Tianba immediately said: “Okay! Our ideas coincide! Now there is only the Puppet Army, who can help me avenge Yuan Tianba!”

On the morning of December 3rd, Fan Dongying, the deputy commander of the First Army of the Southeast Xiang Army, and Yuan Tianba, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, led part of the army of these two corps in Jianyang City without saying goodbye, and went straight to Jianyang City. Go north.

“Bhacha-” A teacup was severely dropped to the ground by Zhang Mingqi, “Mr. Tang, how did you guarantee to the chief governor! As a result, now Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba ran away with troops!”

The counselor Tang Yan said embarrassingly: “All subordinates are not doing things well, please be punished by the lord! The people sent by the Red Fox to Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba were all bewildered by these two people, and we didn’t find these two people at all. Little action.”

Zhang Mingqi gritted his teeth and said: “These two bastards, even if they don’t want to go with the capital governor to join the people of Lu, just leave alone. Now they are leaving the capital governor with at least 300,000 troops, which is in vain. Trust them then!”

At this time, Liu Fengbao, the commander of the Fourth Army Corps, said angrily: “Master, it is better to let his subordinates lead troops to chase them back!”

The counselor Tang Yan immediately stopped him and said: “You can’t chase! Of the 300,000 people taken away by Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba, almost all of them are the most powerful troops in the First Army and the Imperial Guard. Once General Liu leads people to chase If we go up, not only will we not be able to keep Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba, and the 300,000 troops, but it will further increase the loss of our Southeast Xiang Army.”

Zhang Mingqi sighed and said, “Forget it, it’s going to rain Niang to marry, just let them go! Seeing where Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba led their troops away, they should go to Hangzhou and prepare to take refuge in the prisoners. Army, sigh—”

Then Zhang Mingqi said to the counselor Tang Yan: “Mr. Tang, you immediately send someone to contact the State of Lu to discuss the matter of the Southeast Xiang Army’s refuge in the State of Lu.”

The counselor Tang Yan frowned slightly and said: “The lord, General Zhao Lianjin and General Zhou Jiling, are leading their troops to retreat to Jianyang City to take refuge in the State of Lu. Do you have to wait for the two generals to come back…”

Zhang Mingqi waved his hand and said: “Don’t wait for them. Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling have been loyal to the capital governor. The capital governor decided to join Lu, and they will definitely continue to follow the governor!”

On the evening of December 5th, in Fuming County, Suzhou, the remnants of the Second and Fifth Army of the Southeast Army merged with the remnants of the Third and Sixth Army. There are more than 100,000 troops of the Imperial Guard Corps.

Inside a curtain, Zhou Jiling said to Zhao Lianjin in a deep voice: “Do you know the news about Jianyang City?”

Zhao Lianjin frowned and asked, “What news is Jianyang City?”

Zhou Jiling sighed and said, “Fan Dongying, the deputy commander of the First Army Corps, and Yuan Tianba, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards Corps, led the 300,000 troops of the two regiments. They have already countered our Southeast Xiang Army, Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba. Bring these 300,000 people to join the Puppet Army!”

“What! There is such a thing! For the waste of the lord’s trust in Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba, how can they betray the lord at this time!” Zhao Lianjin immediately said angrily.

Zhou Jiling shook his head and said: “According to the news from Jianyang City, the lord is about to surrender to Lu Guo. Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba share a deep hatred with Lu Guo. At this time, they led their troops to join the Polu Army. It is also normal.”

Zhao Lianjin stood up suddenly and asked in disbelief, “What did you say? The lord is going to surrender to Lu State?”

Zhou Jiling said with a wry smile: “It’s true, the lord should have sent someone to contact Lu State.”

Zhao Lianjin asked solemnly: “General Zhou, is the information you got accurate?”

Zhou Jiling shrugged and said: “This news is absolutely accurate. We are now less than two hundred miles away from Jianyang City. When we return to Jianyang City, General Zhao will know whether this news is true.”

“No, I want to return to Jianyang City immediately to discourage the referendum from surrendering to Lu. Even if you join the Marriage Breaking Army, you cannot surrender to the Lu State. After all, the Marriage Breaking Army is still Jin’s army, and Lu is a foreign enemy!” Zhao Lianjin turned around and prepared to go. Go outside the curtain.

“General Zhao, don’t worry, if you return to Jianyang City like this, do you think you can make the lord change his mind?”

Zhao Lianjin’s body halted, “But we can’t surrender to the Lu people! I, Zhao Lianjin, would rather die in battle than surrender to the Lu people!”

Zhou Jiling sighed and said: “General Zhao, I, Zhou Jiling, are also unwilling to surrender to the people of the Lu Kingdom, and put our ancestors in the Zhou family to shame!”

Immediately, Zhou Jiling continued: “General Zhao, although you and I are in a similar relationship, at this time, I will not hide it. I am not going to continue to lead troops to retreat to Jianyang City. I will take troops to Hangzhou and seek refuge in the prisoners. Army, continue to fight against Lu’s army, I wonder if you would like to go to Hangzhou together?”

After Zhou Jiling said these words, the palms of his hands were already sweating. Actually, Zhou Jiling ambushed many swordsmen outside the tent. Once Zhao Lianjin was unwilling to go with him to join the Sundering Army, Zhou Jiling would break the teacup and let the outside His sword and axe rushed into the tent, hacked Zhao Lianjin to death, then annexed the remaining army in Zhao Lianjin’s hand, and then went to Hangzhou to join the Puppet Army.

After Zhao Lianjin pondered for a moment, he sighed and said, “It’s not that I, Zhao Lianjin, wanted to betray the lord, but the lord surrendered to Lu. I, Zhao Lianjin, absolutely cannot follow. Since General Zhou is determined to go to Hangzhou, then I, Zhao Lianjin, are willing to go with him!”

The reason why Zhao Lianjin agreed so happily is because Zhao Lianjin had the heart to take refuge in the Papa Lai Army. After all, the previous series of brilliant achievements of the Papa Lai Army have shown that the future of Da Jin will definitely fall into the Po Lai Army. The hand, whether it is the current imperial court of Dajin, or the former Southeast Xiang Army, can’t stop the Breakthrough Army.

Zhao Lianjin understands the principle of good birds choosing wood and living there, but Zhao Lianjin has not yet passed the hurdle for betraying Zhang Mingqi. Now that Zhang Mingqi wants to surrender to Lu State, it is equivalent to helping Zhao Lianjin overcome the hurdle in his heart.

Zhou Jiling breathed a sigh of relief immediately, “General Zhao, no matter what conflicts we had in the past, we are aiming at your unwillingness to surrender to the State of Lu. I, Zhou Jiling, are willing to treat you as a brother in the future!”

“Okay! I, Zhao, will definitely take General Zhou as his brother in the future! Our two brothers will need to support each other a lot in the future in the army!”

“Brother Zhao is right. After joining the Puppet Army, our brothers should support each other a lot!”

In the morning of the next day, Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling sorted out the army of their opponents. They clearly told their subordinates that they were going to join the sabotage army. Because Zhang Mingqi wanted to take refuge in the Lu State, most of Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling’s subordinates The generals are willing to follow the two to join the Pozu Army.

However, there were some generals who were loyal to Zhang Mingqi who were unwilling to follow Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling to Hangzhou. Originally, Zhou Jiling was going to put these generals who were unwilling to follow them to death, but Zhao Lianjin stopped them. Zhao Lianjin released these generals who were loyal to Zhang Mingqi. , Let them leave the barracks on horseback and go to Jianyang City to report to Zhang Mingqi, while the army in the hands of these generals stayed.

Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling led an army of about 500,000 Southeast Xiangs. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, they continued to set off on the afternoon of December 6, but the direction of the 500,000 troops was no longer Jianyang City. It turned to Hangzhou to the north.

“Papa–Papa–Papa–” Three teacups were thrown to the ground by Zhang Mingqi in succession, “Asshole! All assholes! I, Zhang Mingqi trusted them so much, and they all betrayed me! Bring the armour of the chief governor, and the chief governor will personally lead his troops to chop off the heads of the two traitors, Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling!”

The generals who were released by Zhao Lianjin have returned to Jianyang City, and at the same time they brought Zhang Mingqi an angry news. Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling, the two most outstanding generals of the Southeast Army, chose to betray the Southeast Army at this time. The army, betrayed Zhang Mingqi, the commander of the Southeast Xiang Army, and led the 500,000 troops of the Southeast Xiang Army to go to Hangzhou to join the Poman Army.

The counselor Tang Yan quickly said: “The lord calmed down, Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling had 500,000 troops in their hands, and the First Army and the Imperial Guard in Jianyang City were greatly damaged after Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba left. , Even if the lord brought all the 1.2 million troops here in Jianyang City, he would not be able to defeat the half million troops in the hands of Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling. Moreover, according to the current situation, we could not catch up with Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling. ”

Zhang Mingqi suddenly kicked the counselor Tang Yan down, “Tang Yan, the chief governor has handed over the red fox to you, but what did you do! Fan Dongying and Yuan Tianba ran away with them, Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling. Now I have led the troops to run away. Why didn’t the Red Fox even have any news before! Didn’t you say that there are already many spies installed by the generals?”

Zhang Mingqi’s kick was very hard. After kicking Tang Yan for a long time, he caught his breath. Thanks to Liu Fengbao, the commander of the Fourth Army, who stopped him, otherwise Zhang Mingqi wanted to kick Tang Yan a few more feet.

Tang Yan stood up, clutching his stomach and said sadly: “The subordinates are unfavorable, and I would like to rely on the lord to deal with it. However, according to the current situation of our Southeast Xiang Army, it is really not suitable for another war to break out, otherwise we will not even have the qualifications to negotiate with Lu. .”

Zhang Mingqi took a deep breath, and asked Tang Yan in a deep voice, “How’s your contact with the people of Lu State?”

Tang Yan immediately said: “Master, the people have been sent out, and there is no news yet, but it should be soon.”

“As soon as there is news, you immediately come over and tell the governor!”

“It’s Master!”

What Zhang Mingqi didn’t expect was that Tang Yan never appeared in front of him again. On the second night when Zhang Mingqi learned that Zhao Lianjin and Zhou Jiling had betrayed him, Tang Yan actually took about 600,000 troops from the Southeast Xiang Army. Leaving Jianyang City, including the two hundred thousand new recruits recruited by the Southeast Xiang Army near Jianyang City.

After Zhang Mingqi got the news, he immediately spit out blood, and then Zhang Mingqi angrily asked Liu Fengbao, the commander of the Fourth Army Corps: “Tang Yan has no military power in his hands. How could he take away 600,000 people!”

Liu Fengbao smiled bitterly and said: “Lord, maybe Tang Yan has used the Red Fox to control a lot of military generals. Even in my Fourth Army, about 40,000 people left with Tang Yan, and watch Tang Yan lead his troops away. Tang Yan should also go to join the Pozu Army.”

Zhang Mingqi muttered to himself: “Could it be that the general governor chose to join Lu State wrongly? Why did the civil servants and generals under the general governor leave the general governor one by one?”

Liu Fengbao hesitated and did not answer Zhang Mingqi’s question. Instead, he asked, “Master, what should we do next? Should we send someone to contact the people of Lu?”
